The Rafio Positioning Bed Series incorporates the High Back Support Function and Fitting Function at the knees and back to alleviate shear pressure when lifting the back and provide relaxing comfort. This new, very low-to-the floor bed that supports posture improves providing treatment at home.

This bed incorporates a wide range of functions that include reducing shear force, back pressure, and abdominal pressure. This very-low-to-the-floor bed is ideal for users who have cognitive impairments or have trouble with tall beds.

High Back Support Function
- Compatible Model
-
Separating the High back (head to middle back) and low back gives the user the ability to adjust the angle of each section as the user lifts their back.
On the 2 Motors Positioning bed, the high back and back lifting motors operate in tandem.
On the 3 Motors Positioning Bed, the high back can be operated individually.
Conventional Back Raising
(Back Raising 45°)
When Using High Back Support Function
(High Back 20° & Low Back 45°)
There are Two Settings to Control the Bend of the High Back Support
Knee position adjuster to reduce slippage during reclining
- Compatible Model
-
If the user’s knees are not properly positioned over the bending portion of the bed, the user’s body will slide towards the foot of the bed when lifting their back. Without having to customize the bed parts, the Rafio has two bending settings to adjust for the length of the user’s thighs, which prevents shifting and losing posture.
Expected Results of Using the Positioning Bed
Reduced Risk of Aspiration
- Compatible Model
-
The angle of the neck can be adjusted when the Back is lifted and reducing abdominal pressure helps with swallowing. This helps with dysphagia rehabilitation and reduces the risk of aspiration.

Posture to Improve Respiration

Improving posture by spreading the diaphragm and reducing back and abdominal pressure helps with respiration. Curving the upper section of the trunk also reduces force on circulatory organs.
Positioning Bed Supports a Wide Range of Users from Those with Kyphosis to Pregnant Women
- Compatible Model
-
Controlling the angle of the high back support provided to the bending section of the vertebrate in users with kyphosis helps improve their positioning when the back is lifted.
This alleviates shear force when lifting the back and provides comfort to those who have a reduced range of motion in their hips, have trouble lifting their backs, or are pregnant and cannot place pressure on their abdomen.
Reduce Risk of Bedsores
- Compatible Model
-
Compared to conventional back lifting mechanisms, the High Back Support Function reduces pressure and force on the body.
This also helps with positioning for bedsore treatments.
